About this Retreat
Kev is a yoga teacher, recovery mentor, coach, and music professional whose work explores the connection between movement, mindset, wellbeing, and meaningful change. With over 15 years of experience in the music and events industry, he spent much of his career as a DJ and co-director of a booking agency, working across festivals, clubs, and events throughout the UK and Europe.
His own journey through addiction recovery became a turning point, leading him toward yoga, personal development, nervous system regulation, and a deeper understanding of how lasting change happens. That experience continues to shape the way he works today.
Drawing from yoga, coaching, breathwork, neuroscience, and recovery work, Kev supports people in creating healthier, more intentional lives. He is particularly passionate about creating welcoming spaces for men and encouraging open conversations around mental wellbeing, connection, and personal growth.
Based in Lisbon, Kev brings a grounded, approachable energy to everything he does, whether teaching yoga, facilitating workshops, coaching individuals, sharing music, or holding space within retreat environments.
At the retreat, Kev combines music, movement, conversation, and practical tools for personal growth, creating experiences that encourage connection, self-reflection, and a stronger relationship with yourself and others.
If you know Greta, you know she brings a rare combination of warmth, calm, and playful energy. Originally trained as a dancer, she found her way to yoga through a lifelong curiosity about movement, presence, and the experience of being fully alive.
Her path has taken her from yoga schools in India to sacred traditions in Central America and the Amazon jungle, exploring yoga, tantra, breathwork, embodied movement, ritual, and the wisdom of plant traditions. These experiences have shaped a teaching style that is grounded, intuitive, and deeply human.
At the heart of Greta's work is a simple invitation: to slow down, become present, and explore what it truly feels like to inhabit your body. Through dynamic yoga flows, movement, music, grounding rituals, and moments of silence, she creates spaces where people can reconnect with themselves, awaken their senses, and discover the quiet wisdom that already lives within.
MUSIC. CREATIVITY. CONNECTION.
Vani is a Brazilian artist, musician, and facilitator whose work brings people together through music, creativity, movement, and shared experiences. Blending artistic expression with personal growth, she creates spaces that encourage authenticity, curiosity, and deeper connection with yourself and others.
Through music, creative workshops, community gatherings, and years of working with international retreat groups, Vani invites people to step away from everyday distractions and reconnect with what feels meaningful, joyful, and alive.
Her journey has taken her across South America, Europe, and Asia, where she has collaborated with retreat centers, festivals, and conscious communities. Deeply inspired by nature, culture, music, and human connection, she weaves these influences into every experience she creates.
At the retreat, Vani brings her unique blend of music, creativity, and heart-led facilitation, creating experiences that inspire connection, self-expression, joy, and unforgettable shared moments.
